would be great if you reimplemented this in modern drupal and submitted for core review.
Okay, I have created a patch for the current CVS version of Drupal: http://drupal.org/node/45414
From the issue summary: "This patch introduces an option for file-based caching. When enabled, a 'cache' subdirectory is created in the files/ directory, and cache data is written there. The best performance improvement will be seen when both the file cache is enabled and a minimum cache lifetime is set."
Discussion, testing, suggestions, improvements, benchmarking, etc, all appreciated. Cheers, -Jeremy

Hi folks,
We've worked with jpcache in the past to produce static page caching for dynamic sites. We'd like to see the ability to create and edit pages with drupal that get saved as good old fashioned html files.
Perhaps this would happen on a daily basis, perhaps only under severe load, perhaps only for paths with a .html extension, however not all drupal content needs to be loaded from drupal all of the time. Throttle is nice. The page caching is a good step in the right direction too.. But I'd like to cache an entire page so that php isn't even loaded at all to deliver the page.
So, I'd just like to know what attempts have been done to do this in the past (if any), and what problems they had (so that hopefully we don't repeat the same ones).
We've investigated this for other CMS's, but not for Drupal.
